It’s time for jTBC drama Reborn Rich to arrive and also time for Song Joong Ki to fire his coordi lol. All K-netizens could about after today’s press conference was WTF kind of pants is he wearing? Wide-legged pleated thick grey wool trousers that made him look like a hobbit when we all know he’s an elf. If he was … Continue reading →
K-netizens love a great casting when the role seems tailor-made for a star. Such is the response to the news that K-actress Kim Tae Ri will likely be the live-action version of webtoon Jeong Nyeong, a period story about a Korean woman in the 1950’s striving for success. It almost feels like a less dark version of her debut character … Continue reading →
I’m with the K-netizens on this one but also think it will make for an interesting works/mega fail dichotomy when the drama comes out. The casting of Ahn Bo Hyun as the male lead in the upcoming fantasy romance See You in My 19th Life with Shin Hye Sun as the female lead sounds like a good pairing of two … Continue reading →
It’s raining K-drama goodies to start off the week so here is the first official stills for Arthdal Chronicles 2, the sequel to the 2020 summer blockbuster primed drama that wasn’t. It will air next year in 2023 and in the drama narrative there will be a time jump as teenaged character leads played by Song Joong Ki and Kim … Continue reading →
Her short guest appearance in summer 2022 fantasy K-drama Alchemy of Souls was definitely Go Yoon Jung‘s breakout. There were three near same age female leads in Sweet Home and Park Kyu Young has the better character and Go Min Si had the more interesting arc so it wasn’t Go Yoon Jung’s breakout vehicle. She was okay in Law School … Continue reading →
I can throw reality to the wind with a lot of K-dramas but for some reason Love in Contract just didn’t work for me on set up and then never delivered anything beyond the distasteful premise to make it a worthwhile watch. I was intrigued into to watch through episode 8 and then off-and-on to see how the plot unfolded … Continue reading →
Another cute young pairing is coming in 2023 this one with Kim So Hyun and Minhyun, the former taking off with a new agency and the latter leaning in more on his budding acting career. The drama is called Useless Lies and tells of a woman with the ability to tell if someone is lying or not and a man … Continue reading →
I……am heartbroken to see this stuff. It’s like when an author of a novel confuses oneself with the producer of a show. When a story is merely words on a page then it’s fine to change forms, create new identities, as the reader just forms new visions as a reader is required to do. But when it start off solely … Continue reading →
The title of this drama is so apropos with the casting lol but it’s nevertheless good news to hear. K-actress Baek Jin Hee and underrated K-actor Kwak Si Yang have been cast in the next big KBS weekend drama titled The Real One Has Appeared. It will premiere in April 2023 and by then it would have been four years … Continue reading →
With less than two months left in 2022 the dramas that are starting filming now will be arriving in 2023 and one of them is the jTBC romance drama Understanding of Love. Starring Yoo Yeon Seok, Moon Ga Young, Geum Sae Rok, and Jung Ga Ram, the average height of this leading cast guys and gals combined is insane haha. … Continue reading →
After the delayed surprise that was my watching Find Me in Your Memory a good two years late, I decided no more passing up on Kim Dong Wook romance dramas even if the premise doesn’t sound all that interesting off the bat. Sadly You are My Spring was meh but at least I tried to power through it, but his … Continue reading →
I don’t think skipping the casting of Seo Ye Ji for the upcoming TVing drama Island has anything impact on the audience excitement as everyone keeps getting hyped up for the return of Kim Nam Gil in a big budget action thriller like this. His last drama Through the Darkness was so highly lauded by critics and appreciated by viewers … Continue reading →
